This kit is the HG Gundam FSD (with Prototype Long-Range Beam Rifle), released as a Gundam Base exclusive. It's essentially the standard release HG Gundam FSDwith a new weapon added to the lineup. Came as a bonus with the June 2018 issue of Monthly Gundam Ace The Prototype Long-Range Beam Rifle has been added.

The main body is 100% identical to the original in every way — molded colors, parts composition, and seals — so check the original review for a detailed breakdown. It's still a clean HG kit with excellent articulation and joint strength. The newly added Long-Range Beam Rifle shows off great detail and functionality, including the ability to detach the beam gun and fold the barrel for mounting onto the backpack.

All in all, it's a solid Gundam Base exclusive that takes a high-quality HG kit and adds a fairly rare weapon to the mix. If you like the look of the new armament, this might be worth picking up over the standard release. :-)
